My 1973 which I bought new came with an "oro" 6 speed.I swapped out frames in 1975 for a 1972,which is spaced the same. Best regards, Harris Spracher Waynesboro Va.

I bought a new in the box 1974 Raleigh Pro in very early 1976 and it had an Atom 13-26 six speed freewheel. Replaced it with a Regina Oro 13-14-15-17-19-21 six speed the first month I owned the bike.
